Questions

I need my license, what course do I need to take?

You need to take the Basic Rider Course (BRC) if your experience is from little to none and you have not ridden consistently over the last year or more.

You need the 3 Wheel Basic Rider Course (3WBRC) if you are only wanting a license for the 3 wheel variety. This endorsement comes with a restriction to only ride a 3 wheeled bike.

You may need only to take the Intermediate Rider Course (IRC) if you have been consistently riding on a street motorcycle for years and have pretty much mastered the basic skills already. There is a skill evaluation that must be passed in order to continue on with the course.

Where are the courses located?

We have multiple locations: Lewisville, Mesquite, and Fort Worth.

What is the Basic Rider Course?

A two day course based on a 14 hour curriculum - approximately 4 hrs devoted to classroom, followed by 10 hrs dedicated to the range. There is a pre-course assignment called an eCourse that is required to be completed before the beginning of class. It is about 3 hrs of online videos and questions. The first day is approximately 4 hrs in the classroom followed by 4 hrs at the range. The second day is spent only at the range.

What am I required to bring with me to the course?

You will need to bring pants, Long-sleeved shirt, over-the-ankle footwear (can't be made of canvas material per DPS), sunglasses or eyeglasses for eye protection, and a valid drivers license or learners permit.
